Charles has offered to do the pole dance, see comments. I know it’s for chicks but maybe they’ll let us bring a guy just once. The publicity from the photos of Geilich on the pole would be…wow! Maybe we could get Jason to take a spin too.

And they could raise money for a local charity. See Charles dance on a pole and help raise money/awareness for a good cause. If they meet their money mark we could post the video on YouTube. What do you think Ms. M?
Terms. Hmmm. Josh? Kersten? Help me out here. I say he should have to wear spandex and do all the moves taught in a beginner class, but agree to video.
- Must pass the beginner Pole’lates class
- Must wear spandex (but has the option to wear swim trunks over spandex cuz we like to keep things PG here at People Newspapers)
- Must agree to being videotaped before, during, and after class for a repeat performance of favorite moves/tips for beginners
- Must allow for snarky comments from Merritt/Tierney as they will probably end up narrating the whole episode
The gauntlet has been thrown.
(Coincidentally my Captcha words are “Throne Phase,” since I seem to be rockin the ultra-cool medieval theme)
There’s no way you can do YMCA on a pole, Miles. Not that I have personal experience with that, of course.
I think Josh’s terms are reasonable.
Charles, you better start doing squats to get those muscles toned up. We’re all going to be watching.

Miles, are you saying Charles is gay? Or a guy pole dancing is gay, or a guy in spandex, pole dancing is gay. Or a guy dressed up like the gay YMCA group indian is gay? You are really a therapist?
Words in other people’s mouth much, GMOM? I think he just wanted to know if Charles would perform the much-loved, yet kitschy tune, “YMCA.” It’s performed at many a wedding, bar mitzvah, ball game… and it doesn’t mean anyone’s gay.

LOVE THAT! Charles, Jason, for charity? But how do you make money on it?
One dollar bill at a time!
You video the whole thing and then promise to post it on our Web site or YouTube when we reach our fundraising goal.
How much would have to be raised to not post it?
Oddly, my Captcha words are “ladder feet”
Sounds like Charles is getting cold feet Ms. M. I think it’s time for a new blog post. Somebody has to thrown down the gauntlet.
Nothing from Jason. I guess Charles and Jason both hate charity.
My feet are quite warm. I just want to know the terms. I am, after all, a lawyer.

How about having him perform to “YMCA” with a native American headdress (sp?)? Are you up to it, Charles?

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
